I'm just getting started with my action steps on building my power team of real estate professionals. I thought I might get some extra tips and other strategies by attending a real estate investment club but I seem to be running into a problem here in Indiana.
Most of the clubs charge a yearly fee and the one that is open to the public has a number listed on its website but no longer in service. It kinda frustrated me but I'm pressing on for another day to try another approach to locate some more investor clubs here and maybe they can refer me to some other members I need on my power team! I sure could use any advise on this matter.

What are the rei clubs charging by you? I would say it'd be worth the investment, because you'd have access to buyers, sellers, agents, etc. People with the same goals as you.

Hi Sophia,
I know where your coming from. Real Estate can be so frustrating at times. But I still love it. Such a challenge.
Have you tried google search for your area? Here's a link you can try finding your area.

Hang in there Sophia. I started about 8-9 months ago and am just now starting to purchase.
Wishing you the best.

Sophia,
Before you start paying people for any service, ask them if you can sit in a meeting.
Explain to them that you're just starting out and it would seem strange to pay when you have no idea what you're doing and if you like the setting you'll pay to be in future meetings. If you don't like, you won't be there again
If they are legit and not crooks, they'll oblige that offer
think out side the box you can do it or you wouldnt have come this far.a wise man once said if you could be anything,be water if you put water in a glass it becomes the glass if you put in a tea pot it becomes the tea pot water can flow and water can crash water can be soft and water can be hard, be like water.think out side the box you can to it.
My RE club charges $15 for guests and if you pay yearly it's $99. but they will apply the $15 if you sign up within 7 days. Divide that cost by 12 monthly meetings and I think it's a bargain. Look at all the knowledge and investors that are there to learn from.

Also, if you can find an ad either here online or in the mail Dean Graziosi and I think maybe a few coaches will be here in IN this week (5/26-5/5/29) doing a FREE seminar. At least I think it's supposed to be free. I work in different hotels regularly, so I'll find a way in, lol. JK. Anyway good luck to ya! maybe we will meet someday and can work on our future as REI someday together.
